You must configure a new J2C activation specification from
the IMS™ TM resource
adapter and
then specify the values for communication with IMS.
About this task
To create and configure a J2C activation specification in
WebSphere® Application
Server:
Procedure
- Create a J2C specification for the IMS TM resource
adapter.
- Create a J2C specification for the IMS TM resource
adapter. In
the administrative console (also known as the Integrated Solutions
Console) of WebSphere Application
Server,
select in the navigation pane.

Server
- Click New in the content pane. A Configuration tab is displayed.
- Under Provider, select the IMS TM resource
adapter from
the list. The Message listener type field at the
bottom of this page is automatically populated based on the selection.
- Specify a name for this J2C activation specification. For example, IMSActivationSpec.
- Type the JNDI name. For example, eis/IMSActivationSpec.
- Click Apply. You
are back to the J2C activation specifications page.
- Click Save in the message box
at the top to save the changes to the master configuration. The J2C activation specification is created.

from the IMS TM resource
adapter
- To configure the J2C activation specification for use with
the IMS TM resource
adapter:
- Click the name of the J2C activation specification for the IMS TM resource
adapter. The Configuration tab is displayed.
- Under the Additional Properties section on the side,
click the J2C activation specification custom properties link. Custom properties in this instance of J2C activation specification are displayed.
Note: The properties in the following figure might not match the properties that you see,
depending on your version of the IMS TM resource
adapter.
Figure 3. Custom properties for the J2C activation specification for the IMS TM resource
adapter
- Specify the values for the following required properties
by clicking their names in the table and entering the appropriate
values.
- queueName: A comma-delimited list of the tpipe hold
queue names where the callout requests from IMS are being held.
- portNumber: the port number for IMS Connect
- hostName: the IMS Connect
host name
- dataStoreName: the IMS data store name.
In WebSphere Application
Server Version 8 or later, the data
store name can be a comma-delimited list of names, enabling an IMSActivationSpec instance to pull
callout messages from multiple data stores.
- Specify the values for the other optional properties
based on your environment.
- Clickcontrol connection pooling for responses that are sent back to IMS:
Apply.
- Click Save in the message box
at the top to save the changes to the master configuration.
Results
The J2C activation specification for the
IMS TM resource
adapter is created
and configured.
